Kelly-Bootle is well known in the computer community for his books The Devil's DP Dictionary and its second edition, The Computer Contradictionary. These are cynical lexicographies; the reader has been warned.
His articles for magazines including AI/Expert and UNIX Review have been stunning examples of word-play, criticism of silly marketing and usage (he refers often to the computer "laxicon") and commentary on the industry in general. His web site indicates that there will soon be a collection of these under the title "Son of Devil's Advocate". Until then, older archives of his column can be found at http://www.sarcheck.com by following the "Son of Devil's Advocate" link.
